Back to EpisodesBrowns Restructure Watson's Contract, Freeing Cap Space
Description
The Cleveland Browns are restructuring Deshaun Watsons contract to reduce his massive cap hit, freeing up $36 million for 2026. This move involves converting a portion of his base salary into a bonus, with Watson still receiving his full $46 million guarantee. The restructuring is seen as a way to manage Watsons injury history and no-trade clause. The team plans to release Watson in March 2027, spreading out the dead cap hit over two years.
